A Continuous Vector Space is a vector space with continuous vector operations (on continuous-valued vectors).
- AKA: Real Vector Space, Rn.
- Context:
- It can range from being a Normed Real Vector Space to being an Unnormed Vector Space.
- It can follow a Continuous Vector Space Pattern.

- QUOTE: A real vector space is a vector space whose field of scalars is the field of reals. A linear transformation between real vector spaces is given by a matrix with real entries (i.e., a real matrix).

- QUOTE: Let [math]\displaystyle{ \R^n }[/math] denote the vector space of real n-vectors: :[math]\displaystyle{ x \in \mathbb{R}^n \Leftrightarrow \ \ x = \begin{bmatrix} x_{1} \\ \vdots \\ x_n \end{bmatrix} \ \ x_i \in \R. }[/math] We refer to [math]\displaystyle{ x_i }[/math] as the ith component of [math]\displaystyle{ x }[/math]. Depending upon context, the alternative notations [math]\displaystyle{ [x]_i }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ x(i) }[/math] are sometimes used.

- QUOTE: Usually, to apply kernel methods to 'real-world' data, extensive pre-processing is performed to embed the data into a real vector space and thus in a single table. This survey describes several approaches of defining positive definite kernels on structured instances directly.
